Descent

My friends always hated this game
The Ps One port was attrocius though. I first started on a copy that was bundled with my first CD Rom drive. I took to it like a duck to water using the keyboard in this fully 3d enviroment. Especially liking the keyboard controls which they hated. I have also played it since on Os9 on my G3 iBook. Loved the demo for Descent 2 and had the full version given with my 3DFX GPU.

Not nostagia talking as I do play Descent from time to time since. Still holds up today as I buy it for the third time for Windows. Doom and Hexen were good but this is better, even better than Quake for the 3D feel.

The soundtrack is an excellent piece of music in itself

I bet my friends still hate this game

I loved the Descent on the PSX, the cinematics, SFX, soundtrack was out of this world. In fact I'm hesitant to buy this version because it has the original ♥♥♥♥♥♥ midi soundtrack it doesn't do the game justice.

I bought this game bundled in an old porn floppy at a pharmacy back in the day. It's more expensive here for some reason.

Either way this was a good game for it's time. I don't think i could sit through it today though..

D1x Rebirth makes it graphically upto date. Also with it the soundtrack isn't using the FM chipset sounds.

Still plays and feels like the good game it is.
